LIFE IN eooo1A.
The Brilliant Living Jewels Worn BY
South American Ladies'.

Tne Bril1lant Living Jewels Worn by
South American Ladies'.
All the old families have more or less
servants, their former slaves or their
descendants, to whom no wages are
paid and who live in the lowest story OF
the house and provide for themselves
In some mysterious way. The young
ladies make up dulces or sweetmeats,
| which are taken out on trays by the
servants and sold. The money obtained
in this way is faithfully handed to the
senorita of the house, who purchases
the delicate fabric and pretty ribbons
for the new dress, as she dare not
make her appearance in the one previ-
ously worn. How lovely these dresses
are ornamentcd at night with the cacul-
los (koo-koo-yos), the large and bril-
liant freely of the jungles of the inte-
l,ior. When the cacullo is lively it is
the most beautiful of jewels in effect.
These fire beetles are about the
size of the large goldsmith" beetle
! of the Eastern States, but should not
be confounded with the Brazilian bee
tie. that is frequently seen encased in
gold. In the evening, just before dark,
there is a very short twilight in the
tropics. A coal of fire is waved at the
edge of the jungle where the cacullo
lives. The beetles flock to the light
and are easily knocked down into the
grass, from whence they are picked up
and put into a joint of sugar-cane,
where they get fat and lively and are
ready for use when wanted. The eff
feet produced by trimming Il null dress
with cacmllos, which emit strong and
uniform light of an iridescent greenish
character, is very striking. Young
ladies also attach two or more cacullos
to the knot of hair at the back of the
head. After the ball these Jewels are
carefully reimprisoned in the sugar.
cane until wanted again.
AT the commencement of the dessert
the ladies rise and retire, but just be-
fore doing so coal of fire is placed on
the table and the young lady opposite
the male guest deftly rolls up cigar
cite and lights it, gives two or three
whiffs. and then with grace removes it
from her lips to those of her male ris-
a-rts. l attended many balls without
introduction, and approached any lady
who struck my fancy and solicited
her hand for waltz. They SEEM
ed to think it all right. 1t gives
them an opportunity to hirt. One
can say II great many hattering
things without offending. Warmth of
expression is looked upon as
compliment to the beauty of your
partner, who is never displeascd--at
least she never shows it. Singular to
say, the same young lady may be met,
ball after ball, and receive your ad-
vances with approval, but she will not
recognize you on the street. I never
could induce any one of the ladies of
the house where l lodged to walk out
on the walls (the promenade). 1 was
told that it was contrary to the custom
of the country and would compromise
the lady. and yet, felt sure, the girl
would have given the world to marry
an American.-COr. San Francisco

Treatment of Cauliflowers.

Many who attempt to raise this deli
cious vegetable fail to get it in its best
condition. We observe that some who
raise it do not tie up the leaves over the
heads So as to cause the latter to blanch
white. The whittier, the better to sell.
We have seen this vegetable put on ex-
hibition looking more like broccoli
than caulidower in color. We fear that
but comparatively few people raise or
use this vegetable, either because they
do not know what 1t is, or fear that they
could not get good seed, or raise the
same Il they had the seed. Many one
has never tasted this vegetable who
might just ~ well raise It as to raise
cabbage. i. requires similar soil and

Lit is with curious concern that the
people OF the north view the perform
ances of their southern brethren over
the decrepit old gentleman named JEFF
ferson Davis. Recent occurrences at
Macon, Georgia, are frauRht with
greater significance than any previous
demonstrations. 1t was an occasion
dedicated to the memory of confederate
dead and the dead coniedeFacy, and the
entire Davis family was present. One
of the dramatic features of the affair
vas executed with an Old rebel battle
flag, which was kissed by the Davises in
the prt sence of vast multitude and
then torn into pieces and the fragments
distributed among the crowd. There
was not enough of the first flag TO go
around and another was procured and
over this JEFF Davis wept and then the
emblem was given over to his hearers.
Ibe performance was accompanied by
the loud huzzss of five thousand spec
tetors and MIR. DAVIS was SO much over
come that he had to be carried away,
These somewhat startling accounts of
the revival of dead issues winch went
down in iDRlorious defeat upon the
battle fields of the sonth do not tend to
encourage belief that the south hiss
buried its cause and its hopes for ulti-
mate success. 1t is training its new
generation to take mp the failure OF O
generation growing old and is ipstiiling
into it's mind the business which actuated
the leaders OF lost cause in 1851 65. In
the north we are admonished that ell
reference to the sin aud mistake of the
south is an unnecessary revival OF dead
and buried issues. But are they dead
when the re aslyinized president of the
confederacy evokes such tumuit of ap-
plause and emotion by little dramatic
play and battle flag? The confeder-
ases are gaming in courage under Q
democratio administration.
